Signs Psychic is a Fake

Signs Your Psychic is a Fake

Sadly, there are people in this world who are interested in nothing more than stealing your money, and yes, fake psychics are included in that list. If you are looking for a psychic it may be difficult to tell whom to trust. After all, there's no board-certification required for someone to become a psychic. There's no Doctorate or other University-sponsored degree in the paranormal. There's not even an Association or other State or Federal organization that tests and certifies each and every psychic prior to their going into business.

· Your psychic wants extra money to clear a curse on you
A very common trick of fake psychics is to tell you sometime during your reading that the reason for your (or your family's) misfortune is because you have a curse (or negative spiritual energy or other such terms) on you, and that it will take money in the form of more readings, or expensive candles, crystals or other items to remove the curse.
However, it's far more likely that the only real curse on you is the curse of having found your way into the clutches of a fake psychic. Believing that this curse on you is real is probably the closest thing to a curse you'll actually ever have.
Most of us have misfortune in our lives not because of curses but because of events or conditions that often are not in our control. If you find that your psychic tells you about curses that are placed on you are the root cause of you problems, and that they can fix your curse by you providing them with more money, watch out! Your psychic just might be a fake.

· Your psychic guarantees you results
Your mother was right, there are no guarantees in life. Guess what? There are no guarantees with psychics and their results either. If a psychic is offering you a guarantee that they will make something happen for you, like making someone fall in love with you, or making your life better by removing a curse from you (see item #2 above) or guaranteeing that you'll be getting whatever it is you want, be careful.
Mediums and psychics don't actually make anything happen at all. In fact, they simply "read" the psychic energy that is present around us, or is present from the spirits of those who have passed on, and communicate their interpretation of that energy back to you. If your psychic is making guarantees to you about making something happen for you then it might be a good idea for you to carefully reconsider using that psychic. Your psychic just might be a fake.

· Asks for your sensitive financial information
No no no! For all of you in the United States: Do NOT reveal your Social Security information to anyone that does not need it for a very important reason. The Government may require that you enter your social security number for getting a passport. Your bank or mortgage company may require your social security number for setting up a loan or other account, but your psychic should NEVER need your social security number, period.
If your psychic asks you for your social security number out of the blue then stop dealing with that psychic immediately. Your psychic just might be (more than likely is) a fake.

· You have a bad feeling about the psychic
According to Char Margolis, the famous psychic, everyone possesses the ability to have intuition, a way to tap into the universe's psychic energy. If your intuition is telling you to be cautious, or to flat out not trust someone, then it's probably a good idea to carefully consider what your intuition is telling you.
If you feel like the psychic you are interested in is not a good fit for you then you're most likely right. Trust your instinct, especially when your instinct is telling you to be careful. Many times other people in our lives will refer us to someone who they simply adore, but when you meet that someone you do not feel the same. That's OK. Each of us has different needs, and what works great for someone else may not work for you.
If your intuition is telling you that you are not a good fit with a psychic then trust your instinct and look elsewhere. Your psychic just might be a fake.

· Your psychic asks you leading questions
A good psychologist can use leading questions to slowly and carefully pry our innermost thoughts out of us. Without realizing it, we provide information to the psychologist that helps them understand what makes us tick emotionally.
Likewise, a good psychic can pry information out of us without us realizing it. Sometimes this is helpful, especially if the psychic is trying to help us overcome fear or anxiety about the reading.
However, this use of leading questions can be put to bad use by those fake psychics who are only interested in taking money without providing us value. They ask us seemingly innocent questions, and our answers provide them with information that helps them rephrase it in such a way that it seems like they have clearly read and understood our psychic energy.
Be cautious about how you answer questions, especially early on in your relationship with your psychic. Try to answer the question, but try not to add in any extra detail or other information that a dubious fake psychic might re-spin to make it sound like they knew more about you than they actually did.
If your psychic is asking you leading questions then be careful. Your psychic just might be a fake.

Psychic vs Tarot Readings

Real Psychic Ability vs. Just Being a Tarot Reader
Think of it this way. Being psychic is an ability or talent, much like being musical and having a good singing voice is a talent (versus being tone deaf and unable to recognize different musical frequencies.)
Reading tarot cards is an activity, much like knitting or sewing or playing football.

People tend to confuse the two.

So if someone simply says "I read tarot cards" this is instantly equated with that person being psychic, when the two things are not the same. Don't automatically assume that just because someone knows the traditional interpretation for tarot cards like "The Lovers" or "The Chariot" that he or she is a genuine psychic.

The number of genuine psychics who have spent enough years refining their abilities so that they can access it on demand when they do professional readings is a relatively small segment of the population. On the other hand, the amount of people picking up a deck of tarot cards, learning enough of the "language" so they can fake their way through giving a reading and make it "sound" right, is pretty large.
There are a lot of people who read tarot cards who are also genuine psychics. But psychic abilities vary widely. Someone might have just a tiny bit of ability that is unpredictable and erratic, and her accuracy might vary depending on her nerves, energy level, and how much sleep she had the night before. But there are also people who have done their "homework." These folks may have given hundreds or thousands of readings for free long before they ever charged a dime to refine their abilities. This what I did in my late teens. These people's accuracy will be high and they are completely different from someone who is at a beginners' level of ability.
